It was late autumn in Brittany. There were only a few days left until Laing's wedding.
Laing and Tegris walked out of the Fairy Tower in the middle of the lake. One of them looked green, the other blue.
"… Tegris, do you think … Did Aralos listen to you?" Laing was wearing a noble's silk robe. He put his hands behind his back and smiled bitterly. "I don't think he listened to a single word."
"Perhaps it was a mistake to let him see Lilith." Tegris, who was wearing an archmage's robe, had an ugly expression. "You didn't tell Aralos that Lilith was here often, did you?"
"No." Laing closed his eyes and shook his head.
Laing stayed in Helenhilde for almost a week. During this time, the various factions signed countless agreements and reached a lot of consensus. The diplomatic event left many nobles satisfied, happy, worried, and worried. Everyone's needs and positions were fully expressed, and agreements were signed one after another.
The dwarves of Breezy Castle negotiated peace with the Brittany. The Empire and Brittany had further exchanges. Duke Pallavon, Kasvann, also signed an armistice with the wood elf representative, Liv. Kasvann symbolically compensated Pallavon with 200 crowns worth of food, while the wood elves warned Pallavon to stay away from the forest. The only trading partner of the wood elves was Laing.
As for the plan to attack Blackstone Citadel with Bellegar, Laing was not in a hurry to propose it to Bellegar. After all, both the Brittany and the Angrans were exhausted after the battle. Everyone needed to recover. Laing tried to ask Bellegar if he needed food support. Faced with Laing's question, Bellegar stammered, "The dwarves have encountered some difficulties. We can solve them ourselves, but if you are willing to help, human brother, the dwarves will remember it."
In other words, it was not enough. Seeing this, Laing gave Baylor some more food.
Next, it was time for Ryan to take Aralos to see the Lake Fairy. As mentioned before, the Lake Fairy didn't comment on whether she wanted to see her rumored boyfriend, Aralos. On the other hand, Ryan didn't care.
Tegris insisted. The High Elf Mage believed that Aralos and the wood elves under his command would always be an important force.
After discussing for a while, as Tegris insisted on meeting the Lake Nymph and Aralos, Laing took Aralos to the Lake Nymph's tower and let Aralos meet the Lake Nymph.
What happened next stunned both Laing and Tegris.
Aralos recognized Lilith. After recognizing that she was the Elven Goddess he had saved in the Forest of Azeroth, he was ecstatic and burst into tears. When Tegris and Laing came back to their senses, they found that Aralos was singing to the Lake Nymph.
Laing listened for a while and roughly understood the meaning of the lyrics.
"You are the wind in May, blowing through the stamens of my heart ~"
"You are the scorching sun, destroying my fragile heart ~"
"You are the eternal summer, protecting my pure fragrance ~"
"Your favor erases all the world's ridicule, your love removes the mark of shame for me, what does everything in the world have to do with me? You are my universe, the morning light of my life, please listen to my song, your figure is deeply rooted in my heart, without you, what kind of disaster would I face? "
"In the whole world, except for you, I have no worries."
Aralos's lyrics contained a lot of allusions and obscure ancient elven language, and Laing could only understand the general meaning.
The Lake Nymph was quite proud. She deliberately glanced at Laing with a playful look in her green eyes.
I still have a lot of admirers. Look, my champion, there's one of my admirers right here!
Aralos spent a lot of time expressing his longing for Goddess Lilith, and then seeing that he was about to pick up his beloved goddess and run, Laing and Tegris hurriedly stopped him. Aralos's radical actions even startled the Lake Nymph, and she hurriedly stopped Aralos from getting close to her. Looking at Aralos's attitude, if the Lake Nymph was really brought back to the forest by him, the first thing he would do might be to close the door and have sex with her.
The three Chosen Ones sat down to discuss matters with the Lake Nymph. They discussed the arrival of the Final Moment with the Lake Nymph. Tegris was preparing to go to the Empire to contact Emperor Karl-franz of the Empire and tell him to be prepared. Laing's opinion was that they still needed to unite the power of the dwarves, and at the same time try to weaken the power of the northern barbarians.
The weaker the northern barbarians were, the fewer the Chaos army would come south at the Final Moment. Laing believed that this was the only way to weaken the God of Chaos and Echane's grasp of the future.
Laing and Tegris discussed carefully and decided on a general plan.
As for Aralos … this fellow did not understand what Laing and Tegris were talking about from the beginning to the end. He only had eyes for his goddess. He loudly expressed that no matter what Lilith ordered, he would obey.
Meanwhile, the Lake Nymph revealed a truth. In order to fight against Chaos, they had to reforge the "Lilith's Crown". This powerful divine artifact could allow the Lake Nymph to obtain power close to that of the Main God of the Elves.
The crafting of the Lilith's Crown was very tedious. The materials would be handed over to Tegris and Aralos to collect.
After the discussion, Aralos still wanted to ask if he could stay here for the night. After receiving the reply that he could not, he begged Tegris and Laing to leave first. He needed some time alone with his goddess.
That was why Tegris and Laing's faces turned green and blue.
"He can't see us anymore. He won't listen to us. To him, the Lady is everything." Laing sighed and continued, "This may be beneficial to our plan in the short term, but in the long term …"
"Are you worried that he will make excessive demands of Lilith?" Tegris understood what Laing meant. He leaned on his staff and slowly turned around. "… That's possible."
The two of them quickly came to a mutual understanding. Aralos was nothing more than a bootlicker. This famous hero of the wood elves didn't care at all about whether or not the world was threatened. The only reason he was willing to join them was because of the Lake Fairy, Lilith.
For him, he was willing to give up everything for his beloved goddess.
"I remember … Aralos should already have a partner, right?" Laing asked curiously before Aralos came out.
"He already has two daughters." Tegris said calmly. "In fact … if we can get Aralos' help, it doesn't matter if Lilith sacrifices a little. This is all to stop the Moment of Doom."
Ryan frowned when he heard this.
What Tigris meant was that if he could win over Aralus, he wouldn't mind selling his goddess to Aralus because it would be worth it.
Tegris was such a person. Compared to his brother, Prince Tegris, who was passionate and emotional, had always been the representative of extreme rationality. For him, as long as he could achieve his goal, many things could be sacrificed. He would feel guilty, but he would not regret it.
"You don't seem to agree with me?" Tegris noticed that Laing was frowning and took the initiative to ask.
"If this happens once, there will be a second time. If there is a second time, there will be a third time." Laing said in a low voice. "Whether the Lady is willing or not, let's not talk about it. Do you think Aralos will still have the energy to risk his life after he succeeds? All he wants is his goddess! He doesn't care about the outside world at all! "
"You have a point, but I think you are jealous." Tegris's expression was still calm. His dead fish eyes looked at Laing. "You have selfish motives."
"I don't!" Laing immediately defended himself.
"You do." Tegris did not continue to press. He nodded lightly. "But I also agree with your point of view. I didn't think it through before. Judging from Aralos' performance, he can only be used, but not reused."
Tegris meant that they could give many chores and trivial things to Aralos, and he would be able to handle them well. But the most important things could not be given to him, because Aralos was not rational. He was a brave warrior and a powerful hero. He preferred to use his spear and bow to solve problems, not his brain.
The two were still discussing when Aralos came out. He looked a little lost. "She still rejected me."
"Sir Aralos?" Laing wanted to know what had happened between Aralos and the Lady of the Lake.
"Everything was like a dream. In the end, it was all in vain. From the moment I rejected her in the forest, the outcome was already decided." Aralos was still a little lost. The Hero of the Wood Elves and Queen Aleil's Chosen of God reluctantly pulled himself together. "Sorry, I need to be alone for a while."
"Please." Tegris gestured for Aralos to do as he pleased. After watching the Hero of the Wood Elves leave, the tall mage said unceremoniously, "Obviously, it was a case of failed courtship."
"You expected it?" Laing's tone changed a little. He had long known that the Lady of the Lake would not give Aralos another chance.
"Of course." Tegris looked at Laing meaningfully. "I know Lilith has chosen a new partner for herself, but more importantly …"
"More importantly?"
"More importantly, a bootlicker is destined to end up with nothing in the end."
"Are you talking about yourself?"
"… Come here, Laing. I'll show you a treasure."
"I refuse!"
…
The wedding date was getting closer and closer. The great nobles of Brittany and the Empire, the dwarves, the wood elves, and the high elves, Laing's wedding ceremony would be unprecedentedly spectacular. Except for the coronation of the Empire's Emperor, there would not be so many forces gathered together.
The wedding venue had been prepared as early as a few weeks ago. The Holy Grail Knights of the Holy Grail Legion and the Lake Prophets of the Order of the Holy Grail had already arranged the interior and exterior of the Cathedral of the Lake. Piles of barley flour, wheat flour, oat flour, oats, soybeans, and peas were stored for the wedding banquet. Hundreds of livestock were already waiting to be slaughtered. In addition, the Lake Witch Morgiana also opened her own storage room and took out a large amount of sugar, honey, cheese, and butter. François even took out his own stock and transported barrels of Winford's fine wine to the Cathedral of the Lake.
Brittany also seemed to hope that this grand wedding would wash away the dark clouds of the Chaos invasion at the beginning of the year. Laing's reputation in this country was unparalleled, so during this period, even the lords treated their serfs much more kindly.
Marchioness Suria would not marry into the Duchy alone. Her entire group of servants and a dozen guardian knights would follow her into the Duchy of Winford. There were nearly two hundred people in total, from servants, maids, cooks, butlers, and guards. Marchioness Suria would have a complete group of people independent of Laing. In addition, she would also keep the two villages in the Duchy of Winford.
Those people had nothing to do with Laing. It did not mean that after Marchioness Suria married Laing, those people would become Laing's subordinates. That was not the case. Everything was very clear. The servants only answered to the Marchioness. They had nothing to do with the Earl. The two villages only provided the Marchioness with taxes. That money would not go into Laing's hands. It would be handled by Marchioness Suria's butlers and maids.
There were only two days left until the big wedding. The last group of guests, who were also the most important ones, arrived at Earl Glamorgan's territory.
It was late autumn in the Chalon Forest, Angelo's little house.
Five colorful lights descended from the sky.
The World Eater geno prototype was standing where it was, waiting. "Brothers, you are late. The day after tomorrow is Laing's big wedding."
"Angelo …" An extremely cold voice looked at the World Eater geno prototype, who was wearing shiny Mithril armor and holding two vibrantly gold axes. "I really want to kill you."
The vibrantly gold axes were still dripping with blood. Angelo's body had a few wounds that had just been bandaged.
"Traitor …" A distorted and shriveled voice casually sounded.
"We are here. My brother! Anglo, you've completely changed back to your old self?! "A loud voice full of enthusiasm and excitement sounded." That's great news! "
"Welcome, brothers. Welcome." Angelo ignored the three people who were talking. He looked at the original Extreme Warrior Kiliman, who was wearing blue Exquisite power armor, and Magnus, who was wearing yellow power armor. "Our new Regent of the Empire and the Star Torch Guardian are here. I thought you guys would not be here. Magnus, what is that thing around your neck? "
Magnus, who was wearing red, had a collar around his neck. It kept flashing.
"It is a bomb made by my father." Extreme Warrior geno prototype Robotte Kiliman looked conflicted. "To prevent Magnus from escaping, this bomb can make sure Magnus faints. It will not harm the people around."
"Ha-ha-ha … Who has the switch?" Angelo laughed.
"It is in Zhuang Sen's hands." Kiliman looked next to Angelo. "What is this? An unwelcome guest? "
A headless big demon was lying next to the little house in the forest. Its head was hanging at the door of the little house in the forest. The big demon head with four horns and a cow face was still bleeding. Its body had been cut into a few pieces.
"It was a bloodthirsty big demon under Khorne. It came to disrupt Laing's wedding. I killed it." Angelo spat. "It was strong. It called itself the Skull King of Khorne's First Army. It took me a while to kill it."
